Gold Pinky Ring: Small Finger, Big Statement
The pinky ring has a checkered past—worn by Victorian gentlemen, mobsters, and now, fashion icons. It is the most playful finger for jewelry because it is separated from the rest of the hand.
The Signet Ring
The classic choice. Originally used to seal wax on letters, the signet ring is now a canvas for personalization.
- Monogram: Engrave your initials.
- Family Crest: If you have one (or just make one up!).
- Plain Gold: A high-polish gold face looks sleek and modern.
Styling Tips
- Men: Keep it proportional. If you have large hands, get a substantial ring. A thin band will look lost.
- Women: A diamond pave pinky ring is incredibly chic. It adds a bit of sparkle to the edge of your hand.
Meaning
In the Victorian era, a pinky ring indicated a man was unmarried. Today, it simply means you have style. (Or, in the case of engineers in Canada, it means you have graduated and taken an oath of ethics!).
